Six new couples facing an ultimatum must make the decision of a lifetime.
“I love love, and I feel like everyone has a soulmate. I just want to experience as much of the love as I possibly can fit in my lifetime. I would love forever to start right now,” says Mariah, a marriage hopeful, in the trailer as she kisses her longtime partner Caleb.
Vanessa has a similar mindset and tells cameras, “I want to get married. I want someone to make me feel like I am their dream woman, the person that they’re choosing to start their life with, build a family with, buy their first home with. I want it all!”
“At the end of this experience, I hope my partner will choose me in the way that I’ve chosen her,” Scotty admits before the scene changes and sees Dave, Vanessa’s partner, crying and holding himself on a couch.
In one-on-one conversations with their original partners, Scotty asks his girlfriend Aria, “Why do I have to fight for you to love me?” while Caleb tells Mariah, “This a moment to see if the grass is greener somewhere else.”

While some couples catch feelings for their new match, others are reminded of the reasons they love their partners. Kisses are exchanged and skepticism begins to run high. At one point, Zaina tells her partner JR, “I don’t know where your lips have been.”
Eventually, emotions threaten to boil over when the couples realize how high the stakes are.
“I’m putting my entire relationship on the line,” Aria says, wiping away tears while Nick tells JR, “She looked at you in a way that she used to look at me.”
The clip moves on and Nick tells Aria in the car, “It’s hard to watch the person that I love with somebody else.” As he gets emotional about the situation, she replies, “Love is not enough.”
Towards the end of the clip, some proposals are accepted and others fall flat, but one thing remains the same for all couples: “At some point we’re gonna have to decide are we doing this or are we not doing this?”
